We create a blister by gently placing a glass cover slip on a PDMS substrate. The pressure jump across the elastic layer drives fluid flow through micro-channels that form at the interface between the layer and the substrate; these channels coalesce at discrete locations as the blister heals and eventually disappear at a lower critical radius. The spacing of the channel follows a simple scaling law that can be theoretically justified, and the kinetics of healing is rate limited by fluid flow, but with a non-trivial dependence on the substrate thickness that likely arises due to channelization. Our study is relevant to a variety of soft adhesion scenarios. Copyright c EPLA, 2013 Introduction. Blisters, blebs and boils are protrusions of a skin that separates from a solid substrate. They are ubiquitous in science and technology, and arise in situations ranging from the pesky bubble that is hard to a eliminate from wall-paper to the localized delaminations in thin adhesive layers [1], from the active membrane protrusions in a cell [2] to the fluid-filled blisters in inflamed tissues and their physical counterparts in geophysics. How they nucleate, grow and eventually saturate is now a well-studied problem; following nucleation at a defect or debonded region, the growth of a blister is determined by the balance of the internal pressure, adhesive forces, mode mixity, film elasticity, and the deformation of the film and/or the substrate [3 10]. Indeed, the mechanism by which blisters form due to internal pressure is now a standard method to quantify the work of adhesion between the film and the substrate, a fundamental property of the interface. Once a blister forms, it does not always maintain itself and can slowly heal as the fluid permeates away from the localized zone of high pressure. However, how a blister heals does not seem to have been studied previously. Here, we investigate this process using a simple experiment that follows the disappearance of a blister trapped between a thin glass cover slide and a PDMS film, (a) mkc4@lehigh.edu relevant for any system where the escape or removal of fluid is essential to form a uniform adhesive bond. Experimental methods. Our minimal system consists of an elastic plate (glass cover slide) that is gently placed onto a soft sticky substrate (10 240µm thick PDMS film). As the crack between the cover slide and the PDMS film heals (which occurs spontaneously after contact), the edge of a razor blade is used to guide the crack front to trap a pocket of air and form a blister that is initially axisymmetric. The evolution of the size and shape of the blister is recorded using an optical microscope equipped with a monochromatic light source (fig. 1(a)), using interference fringes (fig. 1(b)) to estimate the height profile of the blister, knowing that constructive interference bands occur at heights of (2n 1)λ 4 and destructive interference at nλ 2,wheren =1, 2, 3...and λ is the wavelength of light. We find that fingering instabilities form on the blister periphery for all film thicknesses. However, as shown in fig. 1(b), once the blister shrinks to a critical size, the distal tips of the fingers become pinned even as the fingers grow inward and the central part of the blister shrinks rapidly. This process forms a set of interconnected channels which display multiple branches. To understand the origin of this branching, we consider the p1

The formation of a multi-branched network is observed in the final stage. (c) Wavelength of the fingering instability as a function of PDMS film thickness. The length used to calculate the finger wavelength is measured along the ends of the fingers. Red circles represent the finger wavelengths calculated for the blister experiments. For the thicknesses measured below 100 µm error bars are less than the size of the marker. Black squares represent the fingerwavelength datacollected by Ghatak et al. [11] for two different geometries. Insert: Fingering wavelength as a function of blister radius for PDMS films of thicknesses 75 µm(redcircles)and50µm (black squares). Fingering wavelength remains constant as the blister shrinks. effects of blister radius and PDMS film thickness on the fingering wavelength, as shown in fig. 1(c), and find that the wavelength of the fingering instability is independent of radius and increases linearly with substrate thickness. This is consistent with previous experimental and theoretical studies [11 18] of fingering instabilities in a confined soft elastic layer that find the characteristic wavelength λ =3.7H. Further examination of the finger wavelength in the final snapshot of fig. 1(b) reveals that the wavelength changes discretely with radius and the formation of fingers occurs as the system attempts to maintain the same finger wavelength at different radii from the blister center, with the ends of the finger remaining pinned. By observing the change in the outer radius of the blister (measured at the ends of the fingers) over time vs. the inner radius (measured at the base of the fingers) this pinning effect becomes apparent as shown in fig. 2(a). The outer radius of the blister (blue circles, fig. 2(a)) displays a stick-slip motion; the fingers are sequentially pinned, stretched, and broken due to the shrinkage of the blister. Using interference patterns, we show the height profile of the blister in fig. 2(b), using a simple model for the deflection of the glass cover slip as discussed in the next section. In the branching pattern formed just prior to blister disappearance the channel width varies as a function of p2

In the final stages of blister life the outer radius remains constant while the inner radius rapidly decreases. (b) Height profiles of a blister on a 50 µm thick PDMS film plotted at different instances in time. The height profile, red crosses, is determined from the interference fringes observed when viewing the blister under monochromatic light (λ = 516 nm). A simple model (blue lines) which only considers the deformation of the glass cover slide is used to fit the data.

The corresponding finger width as a function of measurement radius is shown beneath each micrograph. For 50 and 100 µm thick PDMS films the finger width decreases as we move away from the blister center. radius and decreases with increasing radius as shown in fig. 2(c). This is expected if the air escapes through channels formed at the glass/pdms interface to accommodate the flux as a function of radius. The relevance of this observation will become clear in the next section when we consider the mechanism the air utilizes to escape from the blister. Results and discussion. Analysis of the blister height profile and estimation of its internal pressure. To understand our experimental observations, we note that the dynamics of healing is determined by a balance between plate deformation and fluid flow in the gap. Since the time scale over which the process occurs is large relative to the time scale for inertial waves in the plate, and inertial forces in the fluid are dominated by viscous forces, we consider the quasi-static limit for elastohydrodynamics wherein the cover slip may be approximated by a thin plate undergoing a small bending deformations (vertical deformation plate thickness) with its shape determined by the equation [19], B 4 ζ = P, (1) where B, ζ, P are the plate flexural rigidity, vertical plate displacement and pressure, respectively. Solving eq. (1) assuming axisymmetric deformations (ignoring the small variations due to the presence of channels) with the boundary conditions ζ =0and dζ dr =0atr = R, the boundary of the blister leads to the height profile, ζ = P 64B (R2 r 2 ) 2. (2) Figure 2(b) shows the model fit (blue lines) for height profiles obtained at different times for a blister on a 50 µm thick film, with P, R treated as adjustable parameters. Close inspection of the fingers show that the interference fringes begin at the end of the finger. Due to the sharp deformation of the PDMS at the end of the finger it is not possible to directly measure the number of fringes in the finger which correspond to the plate deflection. Therefore, in the analysis of a blister on a 50 µm thick PDMS film an approximate number of 5 interference fringes along the length of the finger is used. The healing process is driven by the work of adhesion between the glass plate and the PDMS. As a first approximation to calculate the energy release rate of the system we used the standard result of Williams for a circular blister [4], G = P2 R 4 128B, which can also be written in the same general form as Ombreioff s classical result for the peeling of mica [20], i.e. G =32 BH2 max R. Here 4 G, P, R are the energy release rate, the pressure difference across the glass cover slide and the blister radius. This model only considers the bending deformation in the glass plate, i.e. any deformation in the PDMS is p3

The function f 1(R) is defined as the left hand side of eq. (5). f(r 0) is the value of the function at t = 0. The blue circles, red diamonds, black triangles, green squares and magenta inverted triangles represent 15, 30, 40, 140, 240 µm thick PDMS films. The gradient of each least square fit is equal to the permeability coefficient, k D, for that particular thickness (eq. (5)). (b) Permeability coefficient, k D, as a function of film thickness. The permeability coefficient increases with the film thickness obeying a power law trend of the form k D = p(h PDMS) q,wherep = (pmol m 2 /(N S))(µm) q and q =1.5. ignored, with the values for P and R obtained from the fitting eq. (2) to the blister profile. For very thin films (h PDMS =20µm) this model predicts the energy release rate to be, G 40 mj/m 2, which is close to the work of adhesion for a crack healing between a glass plate and PDMS film [17], W 44 mj/m 2. However, with an increase of the film thickness Williams s equation yields G<W;this discrepancy is due to the deformation in the PDMS at the crack tip that has not been accounted for in the simple model. Furthermore, although G is weakly dependent on film thickness, for the analysis presented below, what is most important is that it is more or less independent of time. Modeling the escape of air from inside the blister to its surroundings. Onepossiblemethodfortheairtoescape is via diffuse flow through the PDMS film. The air has two possible directions for movement in the PDMS; it can diffuse into the film directly below the blister and/or diffuse through the annulus formed at the edge of the blister. If diffusion through the annulus is the rate controlling step, since the area of this annulus, A =2πRh PDMS, is linearly proportional to the film thickness, we expect that the permeability of the film should be proportional to the thickness of the substrate. Moreover, since the dynamics of the process are dominated by slow escape of air through the channels and the film, we model this via a rudimentary form of the Darcy s law for flow through an effective porous medium corresponding to the channels and the PDMS film via the relation, dn dt = k D P, (3) where dn dt is the molar flow rate, k D is the permeability coefficient, P = P 1 P 2,whereP 1 and P 2 are the internal and the external pressures of the blister. Using (2), the volume of the blister can be expressed as V = 2πrζdr = π PR6 192B. Substituting this relation for V in light of the ideal gas law (n = P 1 V/RT) and Williams s equation (G = P2 R 4 128B ) into (3) and rewriting in terms of R yields, [AR 5 + CR 3 ] dr dt = k D, (4) where A = πp2 48 RTB and C = π RT G 72B,with R and T being the molar gas constant and temperature. Equation (4) can be integrated to yield A 6 R6 + C 4 R4 = k D t + D, (5) where D is the constant of integration. In fig. 3, we plot f(r)= A 6 R6 + C 4 R4 D as a function of time to determine the permeability coefficient k D (see footnote 1 ) [21] which is seen to exhibit a strong dependence on the film thickness, fig. 3(b), via a power law of the form k D h 1.5 PDMS. This is inconsistent with the simple analysis of diffusive flow through PDMS, but points towards a possible role of microchannels along the interface shown in fig. 2(c) in allowing air to flow through. To permit the formation of microchannels the pressure inside the blister should be larger than a critical blistering pressure for the escaping air to lift the coverslip off the PDMS film. We estimate the average gauge pressure inside a blister to increase by about bars as the 1 It is tempting to compare the permeability coefficients obtained here with the typical values reported in the literature. This is, however, not a easy task as there is a large variation of the permeability values reported in the literature. Note also that the relationship between the Darcy s permeability and the thickness of PDMS as reported in fig. 3(b) is empirical, which is dimensionally incomplete. A very crude comparison can, however, be done using a value of the permeability (P = 179 barrers) of nitrogen through l 1mm thick PDMS membrane [21]. This yields a comparable Darcy s permeability (P l) in our setting as k D 10 4 pmol m 2 /Ns, which is in the range of the values obtained for the thicker films p4
5 How a blister heals blister shrinks. If the thin PDMS film adhering to glass is not in perfect contact, it is possible that either the air escapes through this region or that this initial separation allows the air to create channels along the interface. Our experiments and analysis are the first steps in understanding the innocuous question of how a blister heals they show that although adhesion drives healing, the rate limiting step is the squeezing of fluid that occurs via microchannels that form a branched structure. Our study captures the scaling dependence of the form of the blister, the channel spacing and the effective kinetics of healing. An important question that remains unanswered is the dynamics of channelization as the blister heals our experiments are unable to resolve the rapid kinetics of this process, and further work is required to address this question. Additionally, a fully coupled theory for the dynamics of the healing adhesion front that complements our parametric approach is a natural next question that needs to be addressed. In this context, it would also be interesting to study how viscous liquids are squeezed out by these types of self-generated flow channels. As the high viscosity liquids would exert a higher lubricating pressure, it should produce channels of larger hydraulic radius than those formed by the lower viscosity liquids. There could thus be an interesting compensation between high viscosity and high hydraulic radius so that the net squeeze flow rate is independent of viscosity. This may have some resemblance to the anomalous viscosity dependent lubricated friction in soft elastic contacts of the type reported recently [22]. REFERENCES [1] Chaudhury M. and Pocius A. V.
